- brandy3 2 Comments

When the kingdom’s most wanted and charming bandit Flynn Ryder hides out in a mysterious tower, he’s taken hostage by Rapunzel, a beautiful and feisty tower bound teen with 70 feet of golden hair.  Rapunzel is looking for a way out of the tower and strikes a deal with the handsome thief, and they set of for an action packed adventure.

****This has to be my favorite Princess movie yet. Its fun and exciting, but at the same time all the princess movies seem to have the same theme. A mother or witch is trying to keep the princess hidden away or trying to kill them. they escape and find their prince and they live happily ever after.  My kids absolutely love this movie, they are even pretending to be the characters, and act the movie out.  The bonus features are fun, it was interesting learning how they came up with the names and how long Rapunzels hair was. We laughed through the tangled teasers, they are spoofs and film strips from the movie.

Release date: March 29, 2011

Zhu Zhu Puppies are cute and fun

- brandy3

We got to have playtime with Zhu Zhu Puppies.

We received Loolah the pink puppy and Dakota, we also received the Bark De Triumphe play set.  Zhu Zhu Puppies include the puppy and a brush. We had so much fun playing with ou Zhu Zhu Puppies and the play yard. The puppies went through the play yard perfectly. The dogs are so soft and cuddly, they even have little outfits for them but the outfit we received would not latch right and was very hard to put on.

Purex Crystals Review and GiveawayClosed

- brandy3 143 Comments

Purex has come out with a new way to freshen and soften your laundry.

Description: Purex Complete Crystals Softener are 92% natural crystals that go in at the start of the wash so they spend more time with your laundry infusing them with long-lasting freshness.

*****This stuff is so amazing, and I am not saying that just because I am a insider. My family has very sensitive skin and I’m always cautious what I use. I tried this and It did not irritate their skin, and my clothes smelled great for days. I had a little trouble with it leaving some residue behind after washes, but it wasn’t that big of a deal.

Retail: $13.00, but I have found them at Kmart and Walmart for around $5.00

I have a coupon to giveaway to a reader.

Dinosaur Train celebrates National Nutrition Month GiveawayClosed

- brandy3 78 Comments

March is National Nutrition month, and this year the theme is “Eat Right With Color”, it encourages everyone to include a colorful variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and dairy on their plate everyday.

PBS kids want kids to know that even dinosaurs had a healthy diet and are enlisting Dinosaur Train, to help spread the word. You can visit eatright.org for more information.

Here are some great ideas for snacks that are on the website:

  1. Peel a banana roll it in yogurt and dip in cereal then freeze.
  2. Top low-fat yogurt with granola and sprinkle with blueberries.
  3. Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese on hot popcorn.
  4. Dip pita chips in humus (my fav.)
  5. make a mini sandwich with egg or tuna on a dinner roll.

You can also visit PBS Kids for picnic ideas featuring the Dinosaur Train gang. They also have a song all about poop how its important to go.

In honor of Nutrition Month I am giving away a Dinosaur Train dvd!

The winner will receive the new Dinosaur Train: Pteranodon Family World Tour Adventure DVD

To enter tell me what your childs favorite fruit or veggie is?
